Photosynthesis

[Intro: Jean Deaux]

Got it, I got it, oh

Say what you're looking for, 'cause I got it, yeah, ayy

I got it, I got it, oh

I got it, yeah

[Chorus: Jean Deaux]

Oh yes I made it alive, Lake Shore Drive, headed to paradise

In this moment of mine, I can't recognize

Or see that the glare is bright

And what you compromise, I almost died

I doubt the water is red as mine

[Verse 1: Saba]

Ayy, how you lonely in a room with God?

Never slow up, not even a pit stop

Praying my niggas'll never get caught

Overcame it all, like I'm some big shot

Was taught to be a man, up to the wrist watch

To the collar shirt tucked, with the front pocket

Part of adolescence when they go blossom

When your stars align, I hope there's no comet

So far it's...

Oh yes, I made it alive, on the West Side

Still at my momma house

The kids on my conscience now

'Cause the youth dying and it's just more common now

Common ground, stuck through it all like we Carmelo

Comin' down, high off of life, arrive unannounced

Summonin', numbin' the pain of when I'm in doubt, high school

My head in the clouds, like I learned about

[Chorus: Jean Deaux]

Oh yes I made it alive, Lake Shore Drive, headed to paradise

In this moment of mine, I can't recognize

Or see that the glare is bright

And what you compromise, I almost died

I doubt the water is red as mine

[Post-Hook: Jean Deaux & Saba]

What are you looking for?

I got it (I got it)

I got it (I got it)

All the things you adore

I got it (I got it)

I got it (I got it)

[Verse 2: Saba]

Runnin' through my city like a tour bus

Hopin' one day I can have a tour bus

I can see the planets from my window sill

And I tend to tell what is honest

I don't wanna fight no one, no contest

I just wanna undress my conscience

I just met a killer that's bent in his ways

Try to raise a family with minimum wage, what can I say?

Besides the demons, it's reality for the people that we love

And we are the ones that will team up and tee up the party

Dead end the school, bet that they'll show up real tardy

The audience awfully ready and rowdy

I meant it if I said it, you get it in writing

Got into a science, but write with the lightning

Like soil, I'm grounded, the seed has just sprouted

[Chorus: Jean Deaux]

Oh yes I made it alive, Lake Shore Drive, headed to paradise

In this moment of mine, I can't recognize

Or see that the glare is bright

And what you compromise, I almost died

I doubt the water is red as mine

[Post-Chorus: Jean Deaux & Saba]

What are you looking for?

I got it, I got it (show what you want)

I got it, I got it (show what you want)

All, the things you adore

I got it, I got it (show what you want)

I got it, I got it (show what you want)

Show what you want, show what you want

Show what you want, show what you want

[Outro: Billy Williams]

I just wanna be the plug so my people can eat

I just wanna play soccer on rooftops in Tokyo

I just wanna find somewhere I don't gotta put a face on for people no mo'

Yours truly, Billy Williams
